Vegetable preparation for dogs dinner
I have been feeding my 5yo border Collie on a raw meat and crushed veg
diet for several years and she seems to be thriving on it. To prep. the veg, I use a juicer to mulch-up cabbage, kale, carrots etc. then mix the juice back with the mulch and freeze in individual portions. The problem is that this method takes me about 4 hours hard graft to prepare the veg for about 2-weeks feed and it's something I really don't need after working a 10-hour day. Does anyone have any suggestions as to other speedier methods of preping veg without loosing valuable vits and minerals ?? Any ideas are much appreciated. Thanks Pete |

From: pete.misc1@REMOVETOREPLYntlworld. Does anyone have any suggestions as to other speedier methods of preping veg without loosing valuable vits and minerals ?? We use a food processor, on 'puree'. It doesn't break down the veggies quite as much as a juicer, but it's easier to clean and much, much faster. We do mostly leafy greens. Debbie |

I was wondering if freezing may help as this would break down the cell walls..... As does cooking. -- --Matt. Rocky's a Dog. |
